We propose a state-smoothing algorithm for hybrid systems based on moving-horizon estimation (MHE) by exploiting the equivalence between hybrid systems modeled in the mixed logic dynamical form and piecewise affine systems. We provide sufficient conditions on the time horizon and the penalties on the state at the beginning of the estimation horizon to guarantee asymptotic convergence of the MHE scheme. Moreover, we propose two practical algorithms for the computation of penalties that allow to implement MHE by solving a mixed-integer quadratic program.Index Terms-Hybrid systems, mixed-integer quadratic programming, observability, piecewise affine systems, state estimation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
